The webinar roadshow

I’ve written a decent amount about the webinars that we have been hosting at least monthly since the beginning of quarantine. At the beginning of the year, our strategy was to go on a roadshow and do a lot of educational webinars at many of the startups in the Bay Area. It was meant to be a great way to get our name out while helping fellow startup employees with their equity.

Of course since the start of quarantine, we’ve had to make a pivot to webinars. The change has been interesting but welcome so far. It was a much more seamless transition and we quickly found out that organizing a webinar was much quicker and easier than organizing an in-person event.

There are a lot of downsides. Nothing can replace the in-person socializing or trust building. I miss meeting people and developing deeper connections. Unfortunately I don’t believe that will be happening for at least a year so we’ll make do. The webinar roadshow goes on.

Tomorrow I’ll be presenting at a webinar for the women’s group at a leading tech company. Our contact at the company is a passionate individual that we have loved working with so far and we’re really excited. I’m always excited for webinars, but you get especially pumped when you help contribute to closing the gender pay gap.

We have always maintained that startup equity is a large part of your compensation. Unfortunately, the vast majority of our clientele is still men. One way we can help achieve equality is through educating women so they can make the most out of their equity and compound wealth. I’m looking forward to doing that tomorrow!
